At Smart Steps Nursery, we know that a happy team means happy children!
Do you speak fluent toddler? We want you!
Are you a professional at singing off-key, building lopsided towers, and negotiating with tiny dictators over the correct way to eat a banana? If you can recite The Gruffalo by heart and believe glitter is an essential nutrient, you may already be halfway qualified to join our team!
We’re on the hunt for a fun-loving, snack-dodging, shoe-finding Early Years Practitioner who isn’t afraid of a little mess (or a lot of noise). Must be able to differentiate between a masterpiece and a scribble, and have a high tolerance for the phrase “Why?” repeated ad infinitum.
- Essential skills: Hide and seek champion, sock detective, expert bug spotter.
- Perks: Unlimited play-dough, daily singalongs, and enough craft projects to fill your fridge door for years.
- Warning: May occasionally leave with stickers stuck to your hair and a pocket full of mysterious crumbs.
If you think you can keep up with our pint-sized philosophers and can survive on tea and biscuits, apply today. Your inner child will thank you!
